Details	A generator set being unloaded from a 'York' aircraft at Gatow Airport, during the 'Berlin Airlift', 1948. Between April 1948 and May 1949 Stalin, leader of the USSR, imposed a land blockade on supplies from Western Europe to West Berlin.

After a year Stalin conceded defeat and lifted the land blockade.
